• 18 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Appointing a military person as the Kenya ambassador to Somalia is the right thing to do. We believe that he is going to bring some changes both diplomatically and politically, so that we can understand what the Government of Somalia is thinking in terms of how we can help them to fight Al Shabaab, and so that we our tourism can be restored. Our citizens should be secure. view
• 18 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: I second. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 17 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Speaker. view
• 17 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I stand on a point of order. I just wanted your guidance because many Members have mentioned that committees should be disbanded. I was perusing the Standing Orders for the provisions - other than the ones on the Powers and Privileges Committee - that say that a committee can be dissolved. I seek your guidance on that. Maybe there are some sections that I did not see. I did not find any section where it is provided that committees can just be disbanded that way. view

• 11 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I want to take hon. Members down the memory lane. A year and some months ago, what happened at Westgate, later on in Mpeketoni and currently in Mandera is something that we cannot close our eyes to.

• 11 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: They have been put in terror lists. This is a fact, whether we like it or not. We have a country like Ethiopia which has a very large number of Muslims, and Somalis yet terrorists do not go down there. How can I picket or engage in demonstrations when I fear Al Shabaab ?

• 11 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: women. It is a reality. We cannot say we want liberty and at the same time we want to fight terrorism. These two cannot go together. It is a reality and a fact. view
• 11 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: You can call it shame or whatever it is. Many of us are going to celebrate Christmas. The Al-Shabaab have already said that they are going to hit us during this Christmas. It is a reality. Let me tell you that they said that when children go back to school, they will slaughter them. Already 130 of them have crossed the border. It is a reality; we must fight them. We want liberty but we must not compromise our security. Thank you, hon. Speaker, I support this Bill. view
• 10 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. I also take this opportunity to give my condolences to the family of J.J. Kamotho. view
